Score 90/100 · Drink 2019-2028, Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous, Nov 2023
The 2016 Côtes du Rhône offers sexy kirsch liquor alongside traces of raspberry compote, garrigue , lavender and incense. It hits the palate with solid flavor concentration and ever-so-silky tannins. It’s a mystery why these wines age so well despite their fairly low acidity levels. This is an intriguing Côtes du Rhônes with a few more years ahead of it.
